EPRI CIM Interoperability Test Case MR2.09–CIS to Meter Disconnect Reconnect Test

Test Meter Disconnect/ReconnectMR2.09

The CIS (or similar system) to MDMS(or similar system) Interoperability Test verifies that the CIS or similar systems can command remote disconnects and reconnects using MeterServiceRequest messages. Meter reads, which are part of the normal remote disconnect/reconnect process are also verified.

Test Description:

CIM standard Part-9 meter messages to/from the Meter Data Management System (MDMS) and from/to the Customer Information System (CIS) are verified to be in conformance with the IEC 61968 part 9.

Unit or Systems Under Test (SUTs/UUTs) are the MDMS and CIS or equivalent systems. A scheduled meter disconnect is initiated with the MeterServiceRequest message and the meter reading data is sent in the MeterReadings message. A scheduled meter reconnect is then initiated with the MeterServiceRequest message and the meter reading data is again sent in the MeterReadings message. As shown in diagram MR 2.09-5, the main test steps are as follows:

1)The MeterServiceRequest messages is sent from the CIS to the MDMS.
.

2)The EndDeviceControl message is sent from the MDMS to the AMI Head End or similar system.

3)The meter performs a remote disconnect.

4)The MeterReadings message is sent from the MDMS to request meter usage data for the meter.

5)The CreatedMeterReading is sent from the meter/simulator to the MDMS and onto the CIS. The required IEC 61968 part 9 XSD is used to send the CreatedMeterReading message.

6)System error conditions e.g. missing and incomplete data reads are simulated and correct error processing verified.

Requirements tested are listed below. The high level test set-up is shown in Figure MR2.09-4. The detailed test steps follow the test setup.

The CreatedMeterReadingsmessage content and format is defined in the Standard 61968 part 9 MeterReadingXSD definition section in annex H.3.

The EndDeviceControlmessage format is defined in IEC Standard 61968 part 9 EndDeviceControlXSD definition section in annex H.4.

The MeterReadSchedule message content and format is defined in the Standard 61968 part 9 MeterReadingXSD definition section in annex H.6.

Figures MR2.09-3 shows the activity flow for the AMI completes Scheduled Meter Read Request. Figures MR2.09-3 and MR2.09-4 show the Meter Reading message sequence diagrams.
